That's not meant to be an endorsement of the pairing. I merely mention it.
I made mention of that here and it's been brought up many times. In those cases, the girl to be married off often has no choice as to whom she is married to. In rare instances is a girl Arika's age to marry a man Sergay's age for love.

Ultimately, though, the series will end up with Arika becoming a great otome - most likely Mashiro's otome. Either that, or she'll do something that remakes the entire otome system or replaces it with something else. That's her destiny. Sergay isn't.
One can only hope that Sergay isn't her destiny. I'm already starting to question the sanity of Sunrise as it is.
